WORD has reached Fort Candy from
the War Department to cease all oper-
atoms for the improvement of that
Post, and to begin preparations for the
removal of the garrison. Referring to
the matter, the Astoria Pioneer says
This is very surprising news to us.
We can scarcely credit the intentions
of the Secretary of War. If it is cal
culated to abandon such an important
Post as Fort Candy, we might as well
turn the Columbia river over to the
enemy and be done with it. Even in
these times of peace, with a treas
ury overlooking with money, and SEEM
ing quiet all along the line, it is well to
heed the motto of the patriot: "In
times of peace prepare for war" What
does the order mean, anyh ow?

A young fellow is under arrest-or
was on last Saturday-charged with
pinching the girls of Cincinna att while
they were passing along the streets.
He is a handsome young fellow, with
a dudish appearance, and the cause of
his strange practice is mystery. Had
he struck the practice Of kissing the
girls, or even hugging the girls, he
might be credited with some degree
or shadow Of good intentions-but the
idea of a pretty young fellow going
about pinching the pretty creatures
ought to be enough to send him over
the road to the asylum. But hold!
Maybe the young fellow has been
married. In that case he knows what
the women deserve, from the strong
er vessel" and hence he pinches. How
ever it may be with this young fellow,
we don't know that his character as
pincher should condemn him, unless
he persists in pinching only the ladies,
We have met men whom we would
gladly have to pinch US, and pass on.
Beside the button-holer, the pincher
is purified saint in the practice of
genuine mercy.

Gen. Boynton very pertinently calls
attention to the fact that although a
Republican Senate voted forty-six
millions of dollars into the hands of a
Democratic administration, to be used
in coast defenses, the Democratic
House has shown a wonderful lack of
eagerness in taking up and passing
the measures. In this connection we
may be excused for remarking that it
is somewhat remarkable fact that
the Democratic party is so often-so
very often-found recording itself in
opposition to the safety and progress
of the General Government. 1t would
seem that four years of solid cam
and fighting to destroy the
Government would give that party
bad name, but as if this
were not enough, it has singularly
happened that whenever the Demo
cratic party has had occasion to ex-
press itself either for or against the
of the United States, the
tendency seems to have been to get on
the opposing side. We would not be
understood as wishing to insinuate
that anything like spirit of disloy-
atty. It just happens so.

1t seems that there is much worri-
ment in Indiana. over the probable diff
fculty in seating the new Senator,
Turpie. It does seem that it is about
time such matters were done away
with. Much valuable time of legisla-
tive bodies, and thousands of dollars
in expense, is incurred by such squab-.
bles. It seems strange that State
like Ohio or Indiana cannot elect a
United States Senator without de-
manding that the Senate settle dis
pute that the State could not settle.
We believe the plan of the Senate in
the Payne case was a righteous one.
Let the State settle its own quarrels.

A soldier remarked to us a short
time ago-and the remark is fire.
quent one-''if the Government is go
ing to do anything for us before we
die, I'd like to see them at it. Friends,
we should be patient. There is no
danger Of the Government ever doing
too much for the soldier. His sacri-
fees upon the altar Of freedom were
great, and the country is certainly
largely indebted to him. But on the
other hand there has been much done
in the way Of relief to those disabled
by sickness or wounds, and in addition
to the thousands Of worthy soldiers
who are now on the Pension Roll,
there are undoubtedly many dead
beats and impostors, who merely serv-
ed in the army long enough to get
discharge, and swore their pension
claims through. 1t is quite true that
many men now off of the roll ought
to be on, but there are many on who
who ought to be off. and the Govern
ment has not altogether failed of lib
erality in dealing with the soldiers.
Let us be patient, friends, and the
Government will perhaps do the
square thing by us all. But we do
hope that the President will avoid any
more insulting filings at the old SOL
diers. He was not dealing with a
class Of perjurers and scoundrels.

The Commercial Gazette grieves
that the Democratic press is arousing
some excitement about a possible RI
valry between Sherman and Foraker
in the matter of the Presidential NOM
ination. There is no cause for alarm.
If Ohio presents candidate, it will
undoubtedly be Sherman. We do not
suppose that the name of our excel
lent Governor will be mentioned in
the convention-not that he lacks
popularity, or that he is not man of
brilliant promise, but that Sherman IS
decidedly the greatest man Ohio has
to offer for the leadership of the old
party. If any Republican in the
country can send Mr.. Cleveland back
to Buffalo in 1888, Sherman is the
man. There seems to be no need of
worriment about anybody else.

In Monroe County, this State, there
is a town which has no saloons, or
anything Of like character, and the
the people are so proud Of the place
that they call it Jerusalem. We don't
know but the name is rightly applied,
when we consider that the county is
over fifteen hundred Democratic.
What puzzles us is, to determine how
the millennium can be reached amid
such surroundings. With such Dem
ocratic preponderance there will be an
irrepressible conflict, and there can be
but one result. Either the Democra-
cy will have to leave, or Jerusalem
will have to change its name

President Cleveland few days ago
went out for drive and on returning
found the gate to the prounds locked
against him. Much merriment was
occasioned by this predicament Of the
Chief Magistrate, and many focked
to get the chance to grasp him by the
hand. At last an officer was found
who had the keys, and the President
was permitted to enter. The Presi-
dent had the consolation of knowing
that he is not the only Democrat who
has been locked out Of the White
House.

THE STANDARD.
JOHN H- MACKEBY:-
As the revival meetings in this place

As the revival meetings in this place
draw to close-as they doubtless will
within a few days at most = the
chances of being saved are to many
persons very materially lessened. Not
that it is necessary for a soul to attend
a protracted meeting in order to be-
come acquainted with the Lord, but
that they will, when the earnest, con-
stant appeal is taken away, be in all
human probability less thoughtful
upon the subject of religion. There
have been persons who have felt it to
he their duty, within the last few
weeks, to throw aside the sinful infu-
ences that surrounded them, and come
out openly upon the side of righteous
ness, and thus count their influence
for good. Such persons delight to
offer all manner of objections, when
urged to unite with a church organi-
zation, and to throw up imaginary
barriers to their success. The trouble
is, friends, you too often lose sight Of
Of the fact that it is Jehovah you are
to worship, and not some poor, weak
brother. The subject is too serious
put away with idle excuses. The
church has two classes Of people to
contend with-those who will not
make an attempt to get into a good
spiritual relation with the Father, and
those rare ones who claim that they
have reached a point far above the
entanglements of human frailties.
Both these classes have..need of good
deal of earnest praying. But the
great object should be, with those not
living after the Divine Law-or rath-
er not making an attempt to SO live,
to move out with a fixed purpose of
living right, here, and of receiving
the reward Of the faithful hereafter.
We may stop to argue the condition
of this or that church, or criticize this
or that member of Church-but that
is not the idea. What is needed, is a
generally turning to the Lord, and
thus being strengthened for our life
work. 1t may be long journey, and
there may be many discouraging ex-
periences along the way, but we
should endeavor to live such upright,
humble lives, that we will be credit
to the church, and benefit the COM
munity. We must all take an intelli-
gent view of this subject, and there
should be no hesitancy in obeying the
dictates Of conscience in the premises.

To the Bible student, or for that
matter even the casual reader, the
fate Of the wicked city Of Sodom must
seem at first cruel one, or at least to
reach to the very extreme Of justice.
To destroy a great city by fire and
birthstone because the people did not
do right, seems to suggest with start
ling force the idea that some might
perish who were entitled to better
treatment But the Judge who tried
the city probably knew all about the
case Modern experiences, too, go to
show that there is scarcely any way
or method Of computing the extent of
wickedness to which a community
may plunge. To read the Cincinnati
dailies, then consider the light and op-
portunities for righteousness that
might be improved in a country like
Ohio, one is apt to conclude that there
might after all be sufficient wicked
ness in the ''cities of the plain" to
warrant a shower bath of fire and
birthstone. Right in Cincinnati =
where vast multitude worship at the
altar Of Gambrinus-the reports Of
the reign of crime are perfectly shock
ing. The murderous assault has be-
come as common almost as the return
of the day. Last Sundays paper con-
tanned an account Of gang of young
men who captured a young girl in the
street, and dragged her away to her
ruin. This is the result Of the teach
ing that morality is an old-fashioned,
played-out New England notion, and
not progressive enough for Cincinnati.
This wicked city has the advantage OF
the old city Of the plain, in that there
are many righteous men in the place.
But If the Lord should do as he did in
Sodom, remove the righteous ones and
destroy the place, it would probably
have a good effect in purifying the en-
tire State. We know public lecturers
like to joke about Cincinnati wicked
ness, but seriously it is alarming. HUI
man life does not seem to be as safe
there as among the savages on the
frontier. And yet we are told that
the State of Ohio must walk after the
manner prescribed by the thugs and
bummers of that city, or the wheels
of progress will be clogged!
